Subject: [RFC PATCH -next] tty: serial: add panic serial helper

It was inspired by kgdboc.

Normally you need to attach a debug tool (usually an USB-to-UART device)
or enable kdump before panic happens to get log from kernel after panic.
If you didn't attach a debug device before panic and kdump is not working,
you might not get any log from kernel.

If you do have a USB-to-UART device and the uart port on your
computer is working. This module helps to get all kernel logs after
panic() is called.

It automatically selects the port where you typing the keyword. This is
for those devices with more than 1 uart port and sometimes you need to
disassemble the device to use the console-uart port, now you can use any
uart port on the device after panic.

This module use serial port in poll mode, more stable than other debugging
methods.

It works like this:
    1.Attach the uart side of an USB-to-UART tool to any uart port on your
    device after panic. Attach the USB side of that tool to another PC.
    Open minicom(or other app) on that PC, set /dev/ttyUSB0 with
    "115200 8N1".

    2.press "Enter", you'll get something like,

    "
    wrong password
    Panic now, please input keyword to debug
    "

    3.type "123456" and press "Enter" will prompt a help menu.
    "
    help:
        -a      show all kernel msg
        -3      show S3 msg
        -4      show S4 msg
        -filter-[string]        show msg contains [string]
        -q-     quit
    "

    4.Finally type 'a', '3', '4', 'q' or "filter-xxx" to get what you want.

Tested on an arm64 PC with 6.4.0-rc2.
